Title : The Tribulations of a Cashier - Sam Anna - book
Summary : What do we see of the world and people when we see them from the point of view of a supermarket cashier? We think that going through the checkout is a neutral moment and we don't monitor ourselves. The cashier is for us a blind gaze, in the extreme she is herself a machine. So we show ourselves as we are. And when the cashier's name is Anna Sam, she has a degree in literature and doesn't have her eyes in the pocket of her blouse, she captures our little lies, our little acts of cowardice, our more or less bizarre habits, and she makes a book out of it, offbeat, funny, unlike any other.

Summary : Julien Signol, my paternal grandfather, never knew how to read or write, and I, his grandson, became a writer. Thanks to him, of course, and thanks to my parents, their work, their courage, everything they left me. And yet, it took Julien more than forty years to dare ask his son the question his mother had answered with a cruel slap when he was seven: Why is the sky blue? He was left bruised, vaguely understanding that the child of a servant, a widow at that, had no right to raise his head to the sky. This scene did not take place in the 18th century. century, but the dawn of the 20th century ... Men suffer, struggle, so that their children live better lives than they did. Julien is a humble example: by escaping a destiny written in advance, he succeeded in conquering his dignity, in offering his sons everything he had lacked. Is this not still today, despite the differences in lifestyles, the goal of all men and women in a fight that remains and will always remain the same? Christian Signol

Title : On earth as it is in heaven - Christian Signol - book
Summary :
A tale of rebirth, an ode to the beauty and mystery of the world, Christian Signol's new novel evokes themes dear to the author of a work that celebrates nature and denounces the danger that threatens it. On Earth as in Heaven is the poignant story of a father and son separated by destiny. One has never left the land of his birth, this immutable universe to which he is viscerally attached and whose every secret he knows. The other, driven like a migratory bird toward a promising elsewhere, left for Canada to discover the great outdoors and has not been heard from for ten years. Until the tragedy that, perhaps, will bring them back together. Christian Signol has a talent for evoking the immensity of the sky, blazing summers, and clear dawns. From the ponds of Touvois to the wide open spaces of Northern Quebec, this modest tale is a hymn to the consoling power of nature, magnified by the nobility and beauty of large, free birds.
